    1 or 2 point calibrations. For all other applications, a 3-Point Calibration is recommended. Always perform a 3-Point Calibration on new probes and probes that have been in use for long periods. This maximizes measurement slope linearity. EC600 V2.0 4/10...
  • Page 7 Such measurements are sometimes used in the electrical power and petrochemical industries. Set these parameters to ON only if necessary, otherwise leave these parameters in the OFF state. EC600 V2.0 4/10...
  • Page 8 1. From the P7 menu, use the CAL or the M+/RM keys to select ON (reset the factory default settings) or OFF (cancel edit) 2. Momentarily press MODE to move to the first parameter (P1) or press ENTER to return to the normal measurement mode EC600 V2.0 4/10...
  • Page 9 For abnormal readings, try calibrating again; if the problem persists replace the Electrode. The user can also try resetting the meter to factory default conditions per Parameter P7 (detailed in an earlier section). Electrode life can be shortened by heavy use, extreme conditions, and improper maintenance. EC600 V2.0 4/10...
  • Page 10 From the P2 menu, use the CAL or the M+/RM keys to select a 0, 10, or 20 minute Auto Power OFF time Momentarily press MODE to move back to Parameter P1, or press ENTER to return to the normal measurement mode EC600 V2.0 4/10...

    (a) (Europe & U.S.A. series) — 84μS/cm, 1413μS/cm, 12.88 mS/cm and 111.9 mS/cm (b) (China series) — 146.6μS/cm, 1408μS/cm, 12.85mS/cm and 111.3 mS/cm The EC600 offers a unique one-point calibration feature. The user can select the calibration solution closest to the expected measuremnt value. In general the most common calibration solution is 1413 μS/cm.

    (in this case, Parameter ‘Tcc’). If more than one parameter is changed, only the code from the first parameter change is displayed. EC600 V2.0 4/10...
  • Page 13 1. From the P2 menu, use the CAL or the M+/RM keys to select the desired electrode constant (0.1, 1.0, or 10). The default setting is K=1.0 2. Momentarily press MODE to move to the next parameter (P3), or press ENTER to return to the normal measurement mode EC600 V2.0 4/10...
  • Page 14 ON, there is no confirmation step. The user should select ON only if absolutely certain that the default settings be accessed. 2. Momentarily press MODE to move to the first parameter (P1) or press ENTER to return to the normal measurement mode EC600 V2.0 4/10...
  • Page 15 Replace the electrode if the above cleaning methods are ineffective • Reset the meter to its factory default settings (Parameter P9) if unusual operation is noticed. If the restore process does not solve the issue, return the unit for an evaluation EC600 V2.0 4/10...
